Reflecting on ‘Darkness’ a piece I created for during a time when both art and faith carried me through. Depression lingered then as it does now, but creating this helped me find light in the layers. Sharing this, because creativity always helps me keep going.

Darkness III. Fragments of fear, faith, and survival suspended between darkness and light. An abstract reflection on moving through psychological darkness whilst searching for meaning. Available via the link in my bio.

Today I saw Jackson Po***ck’s Number 7A (1948) reportedly sell for $181 million. I’ve always been inspired by his work. Pure instinct. Chaos. Raw expression. During my BA in Graphic Design, we were asked to redesign a magazine cover inspired by an artist. I chose Po***ck and i-D Magazine. Looking back, I can see the early seeds of ideas that still shape my work today. Randomness, fractured typography, tension between control and instinct, and the belief that expression itself can carry meaning. Maybe this piece was less about redesigning a magazine cover and more about discovering my own visual language.

Renamed and framed: BAD X III. Originally created as the backdrop to a piece for a short story. Fragments of structure and silence. Cold geometry dissolving into static, somewhere between control and collapse. Framing has become my weekend hobby. Only several hundred more go!

Nothing had gone to plan.
This was a mess. My mess.

Fear doesn’t arrive all at once.
It builds. It sits. It waits.

Fear I is available to purchase. Link in my bio.

Another day. Another frame. Darkness IV continues a body of work that began during a period of acute depression, originally created as background compositions for a 46 Pages editorial feature. What started as supporting imagery evolved into something more personal, a series of works attempting to give form to anxiety, heaviness, and emotional dislocation.

Concept Single art for the cover of Happy Together. The track sadly was never released and only seen on promotional videos for Joker Folie à Deux. Here’s hoping it charts one day. I personally love it. vinylart
